Guess the Synths

via Magnus via synthfourm.nl.

"As far as i can tell that setup belongs to an Italian gentleman called Ricardo Grotto. He's the guy who bought one of Kieth Emersons Yamaha GX 1s.

I believe at least one of the PS 3300s is for sale. From what i could make of it the price was 4000 euros which is a remarkable price for a PS 3300 in that condition."

As always, click the image for a bigger shot.

  1. The usual selection - in addition to the Korg PS's, I can see various Memorymoog, Andromeda, Prophet-10, Prophet-5, Jupiter 8, PPG Wave, Polymoog, Jupiter-6, a Rhodes Chroma and expander...

  2. Maybe a Matrix-6 down the bottom...

  5. I like the idea of the sliding shelves .. obvious hoarding though.. I mean, who needs two Prophet-10s? ;-) I can understanding have two memory moogs .. because one is going to break on you for sure.

  7. Sadly, if you had two PS-3300's you'd probably have one working PS-3300 and a bunch of blown tantalum caps.

  8. Tantalum caps aren't that tough to deal with..... a few hours on the bench and you'd be in a joy induced coma.

  9. The whole for sale list is on the first page in that thread. Both PS 3300s are for sale.One with midi one without. 4300 euros for the one with midi. That guy is some serious collector. He has 4 Rhodes Chromas and 4 Yamaha CS 80s as far as i can tell.And of course the GX1. That guy takes no prisoners. :)

  11. That's a lot of gear but can can he make decent polka tunes with any of it? I think not.

  13. Interesting keyboard stands. They're made from aluminum T-slot. Very flexible but pretty pricey for a keyboard stand.

  14. I somehow get the impression cost isn't a big issue for this fella.

  15. I bet there are people who'd trade a kidney for one of those PS-3300's

  19. what happened to jeff koepper's claim that this was HIS studio?
    does this guy normally lie?

    ReplyDelete
  20. I suspect Jeff didn't post the claim, I was suspicious too because although Jeff has a nice studio but i was pretty sure he didn't have a PS-3300 never mind 2 of them.
